Uh there have been lots of nice progress in this.
Um
And uh, you know, w where where we're gonna go is very much uh w what technique do we need to wait uh to to prove something like this?
Um I'm sure Gauss ha uh I'm sure Euler, who is certainly as great, um had conjectures.
Um maybe um
That's an interesting quote.
Um I'll I'll mention Euler later.
But I think there's not an example as striking as uh this one.
In fact, what's interesting, um
As a byproduct of Gauss inventing this, uh, because it was kind of mucking around with statistics, right?
This this is before statistics existed as a field as well, right?
This is like early 1800s.
And Gauss, I think, and you can check me on this, um, Gauss.
got the idea of statistics and the Gaussian distribution because he was thinking about this problem.
So it's kind of interesting.
So he's laying foundations to both analytic number theory and modern statistics in one go.
He was doing regression.
So he fent he he I think he he essentially invented you know regression, the curve fitting, which is our uh you know, this is like one on one of modern modern society.
He was trying to fit a curve.
What was the curve that really fit this?
